  • Regular consumption of ethanol with no recent changes in pattern of consumption
  • In the opinion of the Principal Investigator, the subject is able to communicate effectively with study personnel, and is considered reliable, willing and likely to be cooperative with protocol requirements, including attending all study visits.

  • Subject has a pulse rate that is greater than 90 bpm after sitting at rest for 5 minutes at Screening or Baseline.
  • Subject has a blood pressure that is greater than 150 mmHg systolic or 90 mmHg diastolic at Screening or Baseline.

About this study

Official title: Randomized, Single Dose, 4-Way Cross-over Study to Investigate the Pharmacokinetic Interaction of Oral Treprostinil and Ethanol in Healthy Volunteers

A study to assess the interaction of acohol and oral treprostinil.

Read the detailed description

This study will compare the effects of ethanol on the PKs of a 1 mg dose of UT-15C in healthy volunteers to determine the in vivo effects of ethanol, including the timing of ethanol consumption in relation to UT-15C ingestion.

This is an open-label, randomized, single-center, four-way (period), crossover study in which 28 healthy volunteers will receive a single 1 mg oral dose of UT-15C and/or ethanol. Eligible subjects will be randomly assigned to one of four treatment sequences such that all subjects will receive all four sequences in a pre-specified order.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing UT-15C and ethanol in people with Healthy, run by United Therapeutics at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 17 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Mar 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pharmacokinetics (PK) of oral treprostinil (Cmax) (time frame: Subjects will be enrolled for 24 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 Mar 2015.
